LAS VEGAS, NV — Following a recent performance by a legendary band of their greatest hits, fans posted online about how they couldn't believe how much the lead singer had aged in the last 50 years.
Though the crowd appeared to enjoy the show, attendees later expressed shock that the band's frontman looked so much older and worn down by life than he did when the band first hit it big in the 1970s.
"Man, he really looks old now," said one fan in a social media post. "It's a far cry from the way he looked a half century ago. It just goes to show the effect a life of rock and roll, partying, and naturally aging over several decades can have on a person's appearance."
Other fans expressed similar surprise that a man who was now in his mid-70s looked so much older than he did when he was 25. "I can't believe how much he's changed," another longtime fan said online. "One would expect him to look virtually the same as he did five decades ago, but shockingly, he looks way older now. I wonder what happened to him."
Fans of the band were dumbfounded as to what could have resulted in such a transformation to a person who first gained notoriety when a loaf of bread cost 40 cents.
At publishing time, fans of the band had also expressed surprise that a group made up of elderly Social Security recipients didn't seem to have the same level of energy, speed, and dexterity they had during the Gerald Ford administration.

What the Hell are they making fun of David Gilmore for? (I’m the one making fun of David Gilmore... but they did nail the beard and hair.)
I thought it was Peter Frampton.
Man, I hated that song. I heard it the other day on XM. Barf alert.
Sounds like something we'd say, lol.
Which one? The original?
“didn’t seem to have the same level of energy, speed, and dexterity they had during the Gerald Ford administration.”

Some rockers age, but not all of them.
Many rockers will always be 27.
Sometimes it seems like the world has forgotten Steve Hackett. He never gets talked about, and he should be.
Weir probably partook in fewer drugs than the vast majority of rock stars. Go figure.
That was my guess also.
I can’t believe how good Ringo still looks. And that guy could keep up with Keith Moon back in the day.
I personally don’t care how a good musician looks and we all grow old, can’t avoid that.
Alas, this is true.
Yes. The smug liberals. I wonder how much of the dough made it to Africa. It sounds like something the Clinton-Obamao-Biden regimes would profit from.
